the digital PDA

Happy Thursday! Today's nightlife column is about digital PDAs -- you know, Facebook status updates dominated by references to the greatest husband in the world.

I think these PDAs are even more disgusting than the token couple making out in a smoky bar's corner. Why? Because they suggest that in order to have a successful relationship, you need to be thinking about your partner 24-7.

No joke: I have friends who have never posted an online status update that doesn't have to do with a boyfriend. Sure, it's cute at first -- kind of -- but eventually you have to wonder about someone who devotes their entire profile to another person.

It's like, "Really? Do you have nothing else to think about?"

Digital PDAs: Cute, or a little desperate?
